Question

7. The original price of a bicycle is $700. It is discounted by 50%. What is the sales price of

the bike?

Answer 1

700/2 = $350 (sales price)

Answer 2

$350.

Explanation:

50% translates over to 1/2, so you take the price of $700 and multiply it by 1/2. You then get $350, which is half of $700.
